GDT: GDT: 2021 NHL Entry Draft III - Day 2

[The Great Weal]

Why not pick Jayden Grubbe

instead we take two smaller centres.

how many smaller centres do we need.

A: They aren't small
B: How many small centers do we have?

The Habs drafted body parts in the 2nd round of the last 2 drafts.

 

[WeThreeKings]

There's Svozil

 

[Stive Morgan]

what is this the whine and dine thread....geezus you guys are a bunch of women!!!!

I don't need to get married because HFHabs provides me the same experience as having a wife

 

[Malmo]

Damn Svozil gone...

 

[zx81]

MB looks like he let someone's 8 year old kid cut his hair for him.

Seriously there is no excuse for his appearance at this stage of the pandemic. Not that I put too much importance on that but when you are a public figure a minimum effort is expected.

 

[pezcore]

so whats wrong with Robertsson? Had him late first round

 

[ryan callahan]

Svozil is a nice pick. Sarja guy has some upside but literally the odds of it happening are sooo low.

 

[MtlSars]

Man.......... I think Columbus is killing it this draft

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Still a lot of RD out there:

Gallagher
Plandowski
Schmidt
Ufko

 

[Jee]

Samu Salminen is a great hockey name, would've loved to pick him

 

[Stive Morgan]

After our pick at #76 we also pick soon again at #87

 

[iamtalbot]

Habs following the same formula as last year. Big D in the first, two forwards in the late 2nd.

Draft histories seem to show it's better to do the opposite to obtain skilled players: draft scoring forward in the first and big D in the second

 

[MarkovsKnee]

After our pick at #76 we also pick soon again at #87

Yeah two 3rds then three 4ths. I'd love to trade a 4th this year for one next year.

Man.......... I think Columbus is killing it this draft

It’s just too bad that every one of their players that pan out leave the second they hit FA.

 

[Gillings]

ALL OF THEM

Lmao

 

[BeliveauFan4ever]

I can’t believe how bad Seattle screwed up their expansion draft and only got one extra pick so far for this draft. Mind-blowingly-horrible

They’re probably doing what they think is Wright.

 

[Kairi Zaide]

We should trade for him. NHL is becoming an all in the family league. Dachs and Jones in Chicago. Hughes in New Jersey.

Reunite the Kapanens in Montreal.

We could reunite the Staals too.

 

[Schooner Guy]

so whats wrong with Robertsson? Had him late first round

Safe pick but limited upside. I think with the lack of viewings on most players, many feel they can hit home runs and are swinging for the fences.

 

[ryan callahan]

Mazur is a nothing pick USHL overager

 

[WeThreeKings]

Go after Robertsson, cowards.

 

[Jee]

HI, BILLY MAZUR FOR...

 

[Gillings]

A: They aren't small
B: How many small centers do we have?

A. Smaller. ER
B. Suzuki, Hillis, Harvey-Pinard, EVANS

What I mean by smaller is not very tough, has a smaller stature and can be pushed around easier.

 

[WinterLion]

Kidney is 5'11
Kapanen is 6'1

Yeah, I was wrong about Kapanen. In any case I wasn't complaining. I love high IQ picks which is what both these guys are... and size has been at a premium this year... so it's a good chance to pick up some value!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I think one of the problems with Robertsson is apparently the mechanics of his shooting. He takes too large of a backswing when shooting. He won't have time to take that in NHL. Plus upside. He did have a good u18s.
